Definitions
- the present invention relates to the safe handling, disposal, and economic use of spent bleaching earth from edible oil processing by salt addition with the particular application of making animal feed compositions, including lick blocks and pellets for livestock nutrition.
- Spent bleaching earth is a solid waste material generated as part of the refining process in the vegetable oil industry worldwide. A minimum of 112 million pounds of bleaching earth (clay) are used per year in the United States alone for edible vegetable oil processing.
- a typical vegetable oil refining process involves pretreatment of crude vegetable oil with acid and/or caustic soda followed by bleaching and deodorization.
- Bleaching is a process of adsorbing impurities. The most common adsorbent used for bleaching is the bleaching earth or clay. In edible oil refining, the bleaching process is generally considered to be of critical importance in determining the quality and stability of the final product.
- bleaching was originally intended for the removal of coloring substances from the oil, it is now recognized that this process is responsible for the removal of a whole range of impurities. Besides decolorization, the most important purpose of this bleaching process is the removal of trace elements such as iron, copper, calcium, magnesium, nickel, and phosphorus, some of which are known to promote oxidation of the oil and to limit the storage stability of the oil if they are not removed.
- the bleaching process is followed by deodorization, which is intended primarily for the removal of traces of constituents that cause flavors and odors.
- the treated oil is separated from the bleaching earth by filtration.
- the filter cake resulting from the removal of bleaching earth from the oil stream is commonly blown with steam.
- oil retention of spent bleaching earth from edible oil processing ranges between about 30-50% entrained edible oil.
- the edible oil has significant nutritional value for livestock.
- At a 30% retention level about 33.6 million pounds per year of edible oil is lost in the spent clay. While the clay component is inert, it is not harmful for ingestion. This is reflected by the fact that clay is added to soybean protein meal as a flow agent for animal feed.
- feed animals and particularly livestock feed supplements including lick blocks and pellets to improve nutrition and health.
- animal growth and fertility is limited by the level of nutrients in the feed available for consumption. These concerns arise particularly in animals that graze pasture.
- animal growth, health, and fertility can be improved by feeding animals nutritional supplements that are fortified with nutrients such as, lipids and minerals. Attempts to provide such nutrients in feed blocks or pellets have been common.
- Typical types of feed blocks are salt blocks or salt licks, mineral blocks, protein blocks, and molasses blocks.
- Lipids, salts, and minerals are particularly desirable in feed supplements; however, lipids have been difficult to incorporate. Lipids are often in liquid form or some form that exudes or sweats liquid oil and/or grease, particularly in warm temperatures. Thus, lipids can become rancid and decompose. This has greatly limited the manner in which lipids can be fed to animals and stored. Furthermore, when mixed with grains or other dry feed products, lipids not only risk going rancid but can also clump or agglomerate, and thereby disperse non-uniformly in typical feeding mechanisms. This results in packaging, handling, and rationing problems.
- the United States cattle population is about 96.7 million animals.
- the average intake of salt per head of cattle is about 20 pounds per year.
- the average salt demand for cattle in the United States on an annual basis is about 1.9 billion pounds of salt.
- feeding adequate levels of trace minerals has been shown to benefit the health status of cattle by improving the immune response and antioxidant status, thereby leading to better animal performance.
- trace minerals that can be incorporated in animal feed for the improved health of the animals.
- U.S. Patent application 2011/0021461 A1 describes combinations and formulations of various ingredients, including trace minerals, but is still limited by the requirement that the minerals be rationed and mixed into the animal feed. Thus, the labor, time requirements, and expenses associated with feed calculations, rationing, and mixing are not reduced.
- Clays such as montmorillonite have previously been incorporated into poultry feed at levels as low as one percent of the animal ratio as in U.S. Pat. No. 3,687,680. Effects accompanying the addition of montmorillonite included increased growth rate and body weight of the chickens and reduced mortality rate. Attapulgite clay has also been incorporated in feed blocks at the levels of 2-6%, as in U.S. Pat. No. 4,735,809. In one study, spent bleaching clay, specifically bentonite, was incorporated into poultry feed pellets and the researchers found that “[u]p to 7.5% spent clay could be included successfully in the diet with no deleterious effects.” Blair, R. et al., Poultry Science, 1986 Vol. 65, pp. 2281-2291.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a method for large scale disposal of spent bleaching earth that avoids the existing problems and concerns.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a method for disposing of spent bleaching earth where the spent bleaching earth can be profitably reused for another application.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a method for disposing of spent bleaching earth that uses the spent bleaching earth to create salt lick blocks and pellets.
- a further object of this invention is to incorporate spent bleaching earth in salt lick blocks or pellets at weight percentages as high as 35%.
- the present invention provides a novel method for disposing of spent bleaching earth that is economically beneficial and avoids the problems typically associated with its disposal.
- the present invention prevents spontaneous combustion of the spent bleaching earth beyond the 24-hour safe period to provide more time for economic utilization in a stable product.
- spontaneous combustion can be eliminated.
- the material can then be transported in solid form to a production facility for use as a nutritious ingredient in making salt and mineral lick blocks or pellets for livestock.
- other additives may also be included in the mixture.
- the spent bleaching earth is safely disposed of by mixing it with a salt component to prevent spontaneous combustion and simultaneously or subsequently mixing it with a binding agent composition to form the mixture for animal lick blocks or pellets.
- the spent bleaching earth is present in the nutritional supplement formulation between about 10-35 wt %, salt component is present between about 50-85 wt %, the binding agent composition is present between about 5-15%, and the mixture contains a minimal amount of water so that it can be poured into molds.
- the nutritional supplement formulation may contain additional ingredients to support animal nutrition and health needs by taking advantage of the preservative attributes of edible salt.
